Xiaomi Mi 5X and Mi A1 ROMs are interchangeable?

La MIUI native of My 5X can be installed on Xiaomi Mi A1? We can install MIUI on Mi A1 so we have a I 5X with 20 band? We can install Android One is Mi 5X?
With this short article we will try to answer all of these questions about the two Xiaomi devices that are talking about at this time. The ROM of Xiaomi Mi 5X and Xiaomi Mi A1 are they really compatible with each other?

For a few days, the first Xiaomi device was launched, which was born without the beloved and hated MIUI. Xiaomi Mi A1 was born to embark on the road to the Europeanization of the company and to base its development on partnership with Google which will develop the operating system for the Xiaomi smartphone Android One.

As you have certainly got to see, the differences between Xiaomi Mi 5X and Xiaomi Mi A1 are almost null, if not by the presence of 20 band on the second. To find out more about the "20 band" we invite you to read the our guide.

However, we have received a lot of questions from users and fans who want to know if the ROMs for the two "twin" phones can be installed at will either on the one or the other.
Well, we have an answer today, but we do not know if things will change later.

 

For a couple of days on the official Xiaomi forum, the first ROM was released Android One in fastboot version. If you do not know what it is, I briefly remember that ROM Fastboot are those ROMs that need to be extracted to be installed, or better flashed, by We Flash.

Well, friends of the well-known forum XDA-developers have tried the bold procedure of installing the Android One on the Xiaomi Mi 5X. Let me talk about the screenshot.

If you have already had to deal with Mi Flash and as you can see, the procedure has come to an end!

But ... the more experienced will know it already, this does not mean NIENTE absolutely.

In fact, the user who experienced the flash of the ROM reported that the installation was completed but Without results.

I forgot to tell you that he also tried the fastboot command installation of the individual files, but the result has not changed.

Which means that, to date, ROMs of My 5X need We are A1 are not suitable for both devices. We do not know if the situation will be changed later or if, as you may think, by changing the boot file, you can overcome the problem. It's actually at the moment who bought one Xiaomi Mi A1 will not be able to mount the MIUI immediately and, likewise, who bought a My 5X will not be able to mount the Android One ROM.

I repeat again that things will definitely evolve and so we can expect some ROM compatibility between the two devices but at the moment the two "twins" look quite different and also the code names prove it ("Tiffany"For Mi 5X and"Tissot"For Mi A1).

Soon with other updates!
